Kane Williamson to David Warner : Complete list of players who pulled out of 'Hundred' and their replacements

ECB’s ‘Hundred’ is the latest inductee in several formats of the game. The ‘Hundred’, which will see each team getting 100 deliveries in their inning, is an experimental tournament that will give insights on the possible future developments in the game. T20 cricket is highly popular among the masses. The glamour of the format attracts a lot of fans but sometimes that compromises the competitiveness of the game. With ‘Hundred’, ECB will study if the format is accepted by the fans or not. The first edition of the league is all set to kick off on July 21.
